What is Dublin: A City of Readers?
About the Campaign: In an effort to build community, people around our country have been coming together to build community through the use of a common story. As a city of innovation, Dublin has joined this national movement with Dublin: A City of Readers.
This year, 2018, is our inaugural year. We want thousands of Dubliners to come together, read, and discuss, "How to Catch a Leprechaun," by Adam Wallace. Copies of the book will be given to all who visit Dublin City Schools’ Mobile Literacy Lab at the First Friday event on September 7. Children and parents can enjoy the reading of the book on the Mobile Literacy Lab that evening as well.
About the book: "You've been planning night and day, and finally you've created the perfect trap! Now all you need to do is wait. Is this the year you'll finally catch the leprechaun? Find out with this fun and lively children's book. This book may even spark some ideas for your family in preparation for St. Patrick’s Day this spring."
